WDK 6000 Unable to open <string>

NTDEV
1

When I include the Standard C++ Library (#include ) the compiler cannot find this string class. Here is the error: fatal error C1083: Cannot open include file: ‘string’: No such file or directory.

I looked through the cl command line options but nothing is completely obvious. Saving time here by posting.

Thanks for any help.

Since drivers can’t use STL, it isn’t in the default include path. Just
add this to your sources file:
INCLUDES = $(CRT_INC_PATH)\stl70

Thanks. I did give it a try and still had the issue.

I finally found documentation in the WDK help:
USE_STL
The USE_STL macro is only needed if you are using the STL package.

If you are using this package, you should add the following line to your sources file:

USE_STL=1

Otherwise you may encounter build errors that indicate that some file cannot be found (and the file name in question will have no extension).
